It's a W standing for "the Works".
Edit: Damn, too slow.

Ok, so they jeans are try, they were stiff, so I figured why not?
Anywho, I took post wash measurements. I had the jeans in for about 50 minutes warm, then about 30 hot/warm.
Waist - 19.25-19.5"
Front Rise - 10.75"
Back Rise - 14"
Thigh(at crotch) - 14"
Thigh 1" Down - 13.5"
Thigh 2" Down - 13"
Thigh 3" Down - 11.75"
Knee 13" - 9.25"
Knee 15" - 9.125
Opening - 8"
Inseam 36"I didn't measure the seat, there is lots of room in these jeans compared to my other pairs.
Just like before, fit pics
and with the hardware
Jeans fit well. Wish the waist shrunk another inch or so though. With how stiff the jeans are for now they push out. Def got a natural looking crotch buldge(the woman always points that out…)
-
With the measurements they had/giving me…I wasn't going to risk it. The knee and thigh are pretty much spot on.
Once they break in, the top block won't be too bad. Plenty of room which is nice on the bike.
They might look big, but the top block isn't too far from my skin.

Now comes the hard part, waiting for some fades to start coming in!
These 22oz jeans are more comfortable than the unbranded pair I had and got rid of months ago. I don't find these uncomfortable at all, maybe it is because they aren't super tight,haha.

thanks for the great images & detailed measurements @Jordonf9 this will most likely help someone in the future looking to purchase this denim.
As the germans & swedes would say, "enjoy your addiction in good health"

I hope I can help out another larger man on the forum, haha. I am just built big..6'1" 214lbs…not like I am FAT, but still...
I might soak from the knees down in super hot water to see if I can get a slight shrink from the calf down....

Just putting up my initial DWC posts with measurements and fit pic.

Some updated fit pics…yup I am bored.
I went to one small roll and more stacks.
So with actually wearing them for about a week now, and only having one hard day of stress on the jeans, I must say I do really love these bad boys. I love the fit more than I thought I did at first. It is as big as I would go for "slim fit" jeans. There are slight fades coming in already, but that is the seams by crotch and where my knife is in my back pocket. Vibrant blue, I love it.
Can't wait for a few months to pass and really see the fades come in.
The woman hates these jeans…noisy and the indigo bleeds more than any...my hands get slightly blue still haha.

Killer fit!
-
Yes, my high key area. I got a lot more studio available, but I don't want to setup my lights and change everything for a simple shot.
-
looks much better in this 2nd shoot. did you get a lot of leg twist on the right leg?
Yea I did get quite a bit of leg twist on the right leg. I sort of twist and force the knee down to be closer to the other side. I did it with another pair of jeans that were sanforized but had leg twist a bit. It helps, they are a lot more equal now, the right one is a bit off, but not as bad as it was, I can live with this thought ha.
I notice when I am actually working down on my knees and bending full out, the back of knees take abuse. I can't see how people could wear this heavy in a really tight fit….omg haha. The pain is worth it, but jeez I feel bad for anyone who had really tight knee areas.
-
While I was waiting for a client, I took some quick photos in the sun. Some 1.5 week fades, cant wait to see even in 3 weeks fades
Been wearing them everyday besides sleeping since I got them.
Knife outline
Little fade by knee, and fuzzies!

They have the tonal half arc that Self Edge uses on all their collabs; do you not like that one? Personally- I prefer the standard IH arc, but the SE one isn't bad.
